Five years of garrison on the border, shocked Zhu Yuanzhang who went south to inspect

Chapter 70 Yang Rong was stunned!

Zhu Tuo said: "This kind of coal contains sulfur. Well, it is poisonous. Once ignited, it will be fatal. I used some water to clean it for you."

Some good coals have extremely low impurities and contain a large amount of carbohydrates, which can be completely ignited without causing any harm to the body.That's a type of coal called "smokeless".

But most coal contains a lot of impurities.

In particular, the coal used by the victims was mined in Qinglong Mountain next to Yingtian Palace, which contains many "bang stones". Once ignited, it will produce a lot of sulfur. It will kill people.

Therefore, "coal washing" must be carried out. The so-called "coal washing" is to use water to wash away materials with different components and different specific gravity from the water, so as to obtain pure coal.

A trace of surprise flashed in Yang Rong's eyes, and he couldn't help but ask: "Master, can you remove this poison?"

"Nonsense!" Zhu Tuo said, "Here, use a big spoon and stir it in the pot."

Yang Rong listened to Zhu Tuo's words very much. Although he didn't understand much, he still listened to Zhu Tuo's words. He took a big iron spoon and started stirring in the pot.

Zhu Tuo, however, leaned lazily on his chair and watched Yang Rong busy about.

"I understand, master, you asked me to work so that I can know what real knowledge is."

"Yeah." Wang Yao said.Zhu Tuo said casually, and then he looked at the charcoal in the pot again, and said: "Be gentle when stirring, so as not to make a mess, remember?"

"Remember." Wang Yao said.

Soon, Yang Rong broke into a cold sweat.

When Zhu Tuo saw that the water in the water began to stratify, he poured out the water containing the rocks, leaving only the black wood in the pot.

Then, he asked Yang Rong to find some pieces of yellow soil and mixed them together to turn them into pieces of charcoal.

"Master, why are these coals full of holes?" Yang Rong asked with a thirst for knowledge.

“That’s why we do this because we need to completely combine coal with the atmosphere.

Also the best choice.You still don't understand, coal is used to make fire, I will tell you later. "

Zhu Tuo waved his hand to signal everyone to quiet down.

Yang Rong looked admiring, "Master seems to know everything."

"That's nonsense, otherwise could I still be your teacher?" Zhu Tuo cursed and pressed his hand on the charcoal, "Go and put some coal in the yard."

"Yes." Yang Rong took the coal and walked towards the yard.

Five or six days later, Zhu Tuo looked at the coal mass and murmured: "As long as it's not a big problem, Yang Rong, go get some dead leaves and see if the coal can burn."

Yang Rong quickly placed a handful of dead leaves under the charcoal fire.

When the fire was lit, Yang Rong was surprised to see that the charcoal was not shrouded in black mist like ordinary coal, but only emitted a light white smoke and did not emit any unpleasant smell.

Huh?
Yang Rong took a closer look and saw that the coal was burning with a blue flame. The flame was very hot, even hotter than the charcoal, and was still spreading.

Is it so powerful to rinse it with clean water?

Yang Rong glanced at Zhu Tuo in disbelief, then his eyes fell on the burning charcoal, and said excitedly: "Master, if you use it properly, tens of thousands of people can be saved during the cold season this year. s life."

"Of course." Zhu Tuo said proudly: "You don't even think about who I am. I can turn useless charcoal into good coke with just a few tricks."

Yang Rong was stunned. He looked at Zhu Tuo and suddenly said: "Master, is what you said true?"

"That's natural." Zhu Tuofeng said calmly: "Science means learning everything in this world. Once you understand everything in this world, you can use it."

Yang Rong couldn't help but bend down and salute: "I'm going to hand over these charcoal to these people." Zhu Tuo slapped him on the head and shouted angrily: "How many people can I save with just this little charcoal? Now I will go back and report to my father, and ask the court to come forward and let them save one more life."

Yang Rong said: "Yes, I was negligent."

At this moment, in the palace.

Jiang Rui reported: "Your Majesty, the Duke of Liang, Lan Yu, is seriously ill and unwell and cannot return to the capital before the Spring Festival."

Zhu Yuanzhang was in the hall. When he heard the report, he stood up and shouted angrily: "Can't I still order Lan Yu?"

Beside Zhu Yuanzhang, several young eunuchs looked at him tremblingly.

If the emperor is angry, it will cost people's lives!

Jiang F said seriously: "And I also noticed that Lan Yu had evil intentions towards the court. Fu Youde and Song Guogong Feng Sheng both had secret contacts with Lan Yu!"

"It's all deserved!"

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head in a hurry, covered with blood, and roared at the top of his lungs: "I treat them well, but why do they step on me again and again? Don't you think I will kill them?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was very generous with rewards and punishments, but he was ungrateful. He had seen Lan Yu brave and good at fighting, so he promoted him to commander.

After that, he practiced with generals such as Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, and Fu Youde to train himself in case of emergencies.

Later, Lan Yu did not disappoint everyone's expectations, winning consecutive battles and leading an army of 15 troops into the wilderness and the prairie, defeating the Northern Yuan army.

Originally, this cyan jade pendant was the best weapon prepared for His Highness the Crown Prince.

But now that Zhu Ji is dead, this sharp blade is too arrogant. He thinks that he is the strongest general of the Ming Dynasty. He is arrogant and threatens to be the national advisor of the Ming Dynasty.

As soon as this statement came out, Zhu Yuanzhang became angry.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's view, no one could destroy the Ming Dynasty he created.

"Does he think I'm old? Is this why you are arrogant?" Zhu Yuanzhang was in a bad mood and wanted to kill him. He said slowly: "I say it again, if Lan Yu is not willing to return to the capital,
"Then, go tell Xu Da and let him prepare for battle."

Zhu Tuo walked towards the palace with two lumps of coal on his back.

"Prince Su, the emperor is reviewing the excerpts. He just got angry again and seems to be in a bad mood. Prince Su, do you want to wait a little longer?"

Zhu Tuo frowned, "What's going on?"

"Your Majesty, I don't dare to make any wild guesses. King Su forgives me."

"Really?" Zhu Tuo asked curiously: "What's going on?"

"Mr. Jiang has just arrived. He told the emperor something. The emperor was furious and drove all the father-in-law away."

As soon as Zhu Tuo thought that he and his father were going to talk about something important, he said, "It doesn't matter. You don't need to notify me. I can do it alone."

After saying that, regardless of the little chamberlain's persuasion, he walked directly into the royal library.

Zhu Tuo looked at the documents all over the floor, which were in a mess.

Zhu Yuanzhang was lying on the desk with his eyes closed, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.

Zhu Tuo looked at the pale Zhu Yuanzhang and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this father was really hard-working. He was busy writing memorials all day long and was a complete workaholic.

According to historical data, Zhu Yuanzhang was a son of a poor man. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he cherished the country he had sacrificed his life for, so he had to personally review and review everything he did.
